Selective Shopper

A middle aged man walks up to the customer service desk at Asda. The woman behind the desk smiles as she greets him.

WOMAN
How can I help you sir?

MAN
Could you put a call out on the tannoy for me please, I just want to check if my ex- wife is in here?
The woman seems slightly surprised.

WOMAN
Your ex wife?

MAN
Yes is that a problem?

The woman realises that she is being judgmental.

WOMAN
I'm sorry forgive me ,certainly, sir, what name is it?

MAN
Mrs Debbie Dunlop , she still uses my surname.

The woman then uses the microphone on the desk to call out the name and as she does so the man hides behind a coin changing machine. The woman on the desk doesn't like that and only makes one announcement rather than two. She then calls over to the man.

WOMAN
Excuse me sir why are you hiding?

MAN
In case she's here? If she is I'll go to f**king Tesco I can't stand the bitch.
